Davidson, who was once engaged to Arianna Grande, was referring to male celebrities whose wives and girlfriends have been considerably younger than them.

Davidson and 45-year-old Beckinsale, who is the daughter of late Porridge star Richard Beckinsale, first sparked romance rumours in January when they were spotted looking close at a 2019 Golden Globes after-party.

They have since been spotted out together and last weekend was first photographed kissing at an ice hockey game.
